Away with the "bloody shirt !"
There is still Too much effort to keep
alive sectional hatred in this grand
country Of ours. There are men and
politicians who seem to regard it
reasonable for our Southern states
to honor those who were their lead
era during the war, either living or
dead. But our friends OF the South
would not be men If they did not es-
TEEN their old leaders. The war is
long since past; both sides believed
they were right in that conflict; the
South was convinced of its error by
force Of arms, and history does not
record an instance in which con-
quered people have more cheerfully
accepted the arbitrament of war. To-
day the Uuited States has no North,
no South, no East, no West, SO inti-
mate is the relationship existing be-
tween the industry, commerce and
agriculture of the various sections.
Let us keep our faces to the front
and unitedly work together to fulfill
the destiny which lies before Ameri-
can citizenship. Let us be good citi-
zens rather than bad politicians.
These remarks are inspired not so
much by recent political events as by
a report of the exercises at the un-
yelling in Richmond of a statue to
the late Gen. Lea Christian hero,
whose memory is treasured by all
who knew him, irrespective of Sec
tional or party lines.-Sprigfeld,
